Memory Vereee, 20-US—Golden Test, . I Car. V, V—Cenasslsrr Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. [Ceprrlfht, UOS, by Aatrkta Prat Attodstin.] Between the last lesson, on humility, and this pataover lesson we have omit ted nearly all the events of the last week of HI* life and have com# fight np to the very last evening before His crucifixion. It seems so unsatlsfaetery to get so llttlo where there Is so mtseh, bat this is true of" even the smallest portion of Scripture, and we most rely upon the Spirit to give ns all that Bar tecs we can receive. In a sentence, let os glance at some of the things we have passed over—the healing of the- blind as he entered and left Jericho, the visit to the boose of Zaccheus, the supper and anointing at Bethany, the pnbUc entry Into Jerusalem, the temple cleansed, the fig tree cursed, the poor widow's offering commended and many parables and discourses. Hsppy are the believers who pan find time to meditate mneb upon these uud upon sll Scripture. Tbe events or our lesson era recorded by Mark and Lake as well at by Matthew, and Luke zzll, 8, says that He sent l’eter and. John, saying, "Go und prepare us tbe passover that we may eat.” Then they aaked Him, “Where wilt Then that we prepare for Thee to eat the passover?” He sent them into the city, telling them that a man bearing a pitcher of water would meet them and by following-bin. they would find the bouse. Then they were to ask tbo geoduian of the bouse, and he would ahuw them u large upper room, furnished und prepared, and there they were to make ready. They found as He bad said and did as He had appointed them (Mark xlv, 13-10). There is a word in i’rov. ill, 5.0. which baa Iwen a blessing to me for fall forty yearn, having taken hold of me when I was a young man. a clerk In a store. Do not fail to look it up and eat it, and may the “where wilt thou” of this lesson and tbe “what wilt thou” of Acta lx, 0, be onr continual attitude to Him whose we ere and whom we serve (Acta xxvll, 23). who bus all onr good works prepared for us to walk in and who will guide us as sorely and defi nitely n» He guided tbe apostles on this occasion and when He sent them far the ass' colt (Lake zlz. 30-32). See for your comfort and assurance In tbo matter of guidance Eph. II. 10; Phil, iv, 0. T; Ps. zxxil. 8; Isa. xzx. 21; xli. 13: but bo sure you never lean to your own understanding nor want yonr own way in anything; bo good clay in tbe poster’s hand (Isa. Ixlv. S; Jor. xvill. 6). Now let us visit tbo npper room and see our Lord aod the twelve at tbe passover. This also had been foreseen and arranged before tbe world was. Of nil tbe possovere, frpm tbe first in Egypt (Ex. xli). this was the greatest, for It wns tiie last, tbe consummation and fulfillment of all the others. Con cerning this one He sald s “With desire I hare desired to eat this passover with you before 1 suffer; (or 1 any unto you. i will not any more eat thereof until it lie fulfilled In tiie kingdom of God" (I.ukc xxli. 15. HI). Thus IIo points us on to a greater deliverance for Is rael than ever Egypt bad witnessed (.Ter. xvl, 14. 15; xzltl, T. 8). All the steps in the great atonement whereby Israol should be redeemed, the church gathered and the kingdom of God es tablished on this earth bad' been ar ranged In tbe eternity past, in due time unfolded, foretold, foreshadowed to man, and ns tbe appointed time comes all Is fulfilled, for “tho Scripture can not be broken.” and "every purpose of tho Lord shall bo. performed” (John X, 85; Jer. 11,20). The Institution of tho passover (Ex. xli) should lie carefully studied, and the lessons of the lamb, tho blood, the Miter herbs, the unleavened bread, etc., lie prayerfully enforced. The feet wash ing and the teaching connected there with (John Mill. 1-17) should be consld- 1 ered before Jadns Iscariot la pointed out us tho betrayer. How awful the words, “One of you shall betray me." "It had been good for that man it he had not been born" (verses 2t, St). Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not and who should betray Him (John vl. (H), but that did not In the least excuse Judas, for he bad every opportunity to believe if bo hnd only been willing. In John xlll, SO, we read that Judas, having re ceived the sup, weut immediately out. and It wns night. It Is still night with him who betrayed Ills Master, ihc blackness of darkness forever, and there Is no escape (Job xxxvi, 18; Luke xvl, 20; ltev. xxl, 8). The passover being fulfilled, or about to be, but not for tbe national benefit of Israel at that time, because thoy knew not the time of tbelr visitation and would not have tbelr Messiah, He Instituted a new ordinance to continue till He shall come again, ns it is writ ten In I Cor. xl, 28, “As often ns ye eat this bread und drink this cup ye do shew tiie Lord's death till He conic." Then shall begin that phase of the kingdom when Christ shall reign till tic hntb put all enemies under His feel, after wbleb He shall deliver up the kingdom to God the Father, that God may be all in all (1 Cor. xv, 24-28i. During the time of Ula absence we arc to be wise and faithful stewards occu pying till He come (Luke xlx, 13). We are to be His faithful witnesses, preaching repentance and forgiveness of alns among all nations and not shrinking from fellowship with Him even in somewhat of a Gethsemanc and Calvary experience a* tar aa He may see fit to grant it to ns. As Hia body end blood wen given for ns we roost bold oure, thus redeemed, wholly at His disposal as HI* witnesses (Rom. xU. 1.2; II Cor. lv, 11; I Cor. vl, 19, 20). COMINGS AND GOINGS.
